WASHINGTON
-
Americans
are
living
in
an
energy
dream
world,
a
group
of
the
nation's
foremost
scientists
have
concluded.
The
public
seems
to
think
that
the
end
of
the
Arab
oil
embargo
moans
the
end
of
this
country's
energy
crisis;
but
nothing
could
be
farther
from
the
t
r
u
t
h
,
the
scientists
claim.
The
energy
crisis
is
going
to
be
with
us
for
a
long
time:
and
it's
possible
that
the
era
of
cheap,
plentiful
energy
is
gone
forever,
say
the
scientists.
Their
views
are
laid
o
u
t
in
a
special
issue
of
"Science"
magazine
published

by

American
Association
for

problem.
Eminent

Icgisls,
social
scientists
and
others
paint
a
grim

picture
for
America
and
Uc

The
savants
make
these
imin'.s:
--There
is
only
so
much
oil
and
natural
gas
and
coul
available
within
the
earth
and
regardless
of
what
man
dors
most
of
these
resources
a
r
e
Â£oing
to
be
exhausted
sometime
in
the
next
century.
--Even
if
the
U.S.
embarks

a

of

ploralion

Prof.

says
it's

d
i

cult,
if

to
get
Americans
to
be
realistic
about

One
problem,
he
points
out,
is
their

"The
car
turns
its

into

with

he
wrote.
"The
pedestrian
and
the

by

'
O

c

having

the

it

Moulding

(AP)
--
Armed
with
binoculars
and
sometimes
walkie
talkies,
a
line
of
Gibral-
tarians
gathers
at
the
rusly
green
gate
to
Spain
on
Sunday
afternoon.
They
wave
to
relatives
standing
behind
a
Spanish
barricade
erected
100
yards
from
the
border
at
La
Linea.
"Listen,
mother,"
shouts
a
woman
in
Spanish,
"write
me
and
I'll
see
you
here
next
week."
A
young,
mustached
Gibralta-
rian
holds
up
the
newest
born.
"Here's
Manolo,"
he
yells,
straining
to
hear
an
answer.
Nearly
five
years
after
the
Spanish
government
closed
the
border
between
Spain
and
the
Gibraltar
peninsula
by
locking
the
green
gate,
"the
Rock"
seems
more
British
than
the
House
of
Commons.
Its
19,902
permanent
residents
--descendants
of
Italians
as
well
as
British
and
Spaniards
--
sound
more
determined
than
ever
to
stay
beneath
the
British
umbrella
rather
than
accept
Spanish
sovereignty.
"We
can
hold
out
indefinitely,"
says
Sir
Joshua
Hassan,
the
chief
minister
elected
to
run
Gibraltarian
affairs
in
the
British
crown
colony.
"Nobody
in
Gibraltar
trusts
the
Spanish,"
says
opposition
leader
Morris
Xibcrras.
"As
long
as
Spain
insists
on
sovereignty,
we
can't
even
start
talking."

Despite

Felony
Cases
Against

WASHINGTON

two

against

lawyer
Jake

despite
his
reported
offer
to
testify
against
former

John
B.

in
return
for

An

that

that
he

previous
testimony
clearing
Connally
of
taking
a
$10,000
bribe.
In
return
for

against
Connally,
Jacobsen
had
asked
